This book portrays the life of young Kyra who is a part of a religious polygamist cult. When the prophet decides she is to marry her 70-year-old uncle, she begins to think of running away from her life in the compound. The events that lead up to her escape are tragic. My emotions ran high during her escape! I was so mad at the men in this book. I had to remind myself that this was a fictional story - fighting the urge to drive to the compound and yell (or worse) at those horrible men.
The events in the book have replayed in my mind throughout the day. I think this is a book that will continue to resonate with me.
